PJ in overnight flights

Some airlines provide PJ in biz class on long overnight flights.

Do you change to the PJ or stay in your "own" clothes?

If changing - where? the restrooms are usually shoebox size so it seems like plenty of acrobatics.

I change into them. In my experience, the long-haul carriers that offer PJs in Business/First are also likely to have larger bathrooms.

I change too. Keeps travel clothes fresh. CX, EK, QF, KE and JL all have larger cabins in the front of the plane

On their 787s and 777s UA also has one larger restroom in business where there is ample room to change. UA has PJs on flights over 12 hours (when they are not changing suppliers).

AA also has a larger one mid-cabin on 777/787s. But the most spacious J lav that I recall are the two at the front of A380 upper deck on BA.

Would you prefer to change in the aisle, in full view of all passengers?

Many passengers change into pajamas / pyjamas (PJs) in their seats.

I have never seen anyone changing into PJ in their seats.

I change into PJs in the bathroom. It isn't as difficult to do so as you are thinking it is.

It depends on the quality of PJ. I usually wear comfortable clothes when flying, so I don't wear their pj if the pj is too thin or not the right size or without a collar. If I wear their pj, I would change in the lavatory.
